He was so locked in by about 1994. I honestly believe that if he stayed in Denver and the league didn’t blackball him he’d have been about 24 pts 10 assists by 96-97.
BasketballJones48021 his name is Mahmoud he doesn't want to be called Chris jackson just like how ali didn't want to be called clay, because they're slave names. So mahmoud could ball, and he had one of the greatest pull-up jumpers ever
why is it that apparently only muslim names are considered non-slave names (considerd by of course muslims)? There are so many cultural legit and original african - non muslim - names to choose.
Abdul-Rauf was a gun along with Mutumbo, Robert Pack, Rodney Rogers, Jalen Rose, Laphonso Ellis and Brian Williams this team should of gone on to bigger and better things after their upset of Seattle in 1994. Dan Issell suggests his biggest regret was signing Dale Ellis suggested Reggie Williams and Ellis were a cancer in the lockyer room. Williams and Rogers were traded by the time this season was being played.
@dcc1980 : What did Dale Ellis do to the young Nuggets core of Dikembe Mutombo, Robert Pack, Rodney Rogers, Jalen Rose, LaPhonso Ellis and Bison Dele that made him a cancer in the Nuggets' locker room?
Shame on the Nba for black balling one who definitely would've shattered numerous records and I'm sure would've got a few rings at least if connected with the right system/team. #Nbaolitics #gottaluvem
@@porcelinaofvastoceans you can't tell these fools anything. They can't accept the man was a streaky scorer that did absolutely nothing else and underachieved at that. Never more than 19 with an average of 14 career.
Imagine if my brother in faith Mahmoud Abdul Rauf wasnt blackballed and if he played on championship team like Steph Curry he would be challenging Jordan and Kobe and would be winning multiple championships. Just imagine if they built a championship team around Mahmoud like they built around Curry
Imagine if he was more consistent. He could go for thirty points one night and five the next night. That's why he never lived up to expectations. The Nuggets drafted him #3 in 1990 to build the franchise around him and within two years he was almost out of the league as a bust. The league was far more physical in the 1990's and his style didn't fit as well as it would have today.
Everybody talks about how good he is. U hear people say was he should be in the hall of fame. He is one of the all time greats scoring. If you mean college then ok. But in the nba he played NINE seasons. He never averaged more than 19 a night. His career numbers were 14.5 pts, 1.9 reb, 3.5 ast and shot just a little over 34% from the 3pt line. He was never an all star. And had 5 years prior to the controversy to become one. Yall stop
The NBA should apologize to Abdul Rauf ending his career in the prime of his game. He should be in the hall of fame.
Question is would Adam Silver apologize to Mahmaud Abdul Rauf since he is commissioner of the NBA
One of the best jump shooters ever!!!!

@@auandi pretty obvious there names that Africans gave to themselves. The last names of black people today are adopted from slavery.
The man doesn't want to be called Chris jackson. I don't understand why you insist to call him Chris? It's up to him. Its his choice?

Filipo Sooa Dale Ellis said in an interview that Mahmoud is the one he trusted most outside of himself to take a crucial shot in a game.
so many great moves and one of the best shooters ever..but thanks to the NBA we didn't get to.witness greatness because he became a Muslims.
He played 9 years. Funny how they only cared about Jackson being Muslim and not Hakeem. Or maybe it's because he was a bust
He was “Whiteballed” not blackballed
Check those ankles and knees at 3:20
He backed up all the way into ER cause them ankles are done.
Did him dirty
Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf is supposedly my uncle. He was definitely one of the most underrated players of all time
Supposedly? Does your dad not talk to abdu-rauf anymore or something?
3:21 SMH he had son on skates LMFAOOOO

the denver team would have been a contender they had a perfect team they just broke up after the incident they had all the pieces man fuck
Hussein Al-anezi they wanted keep MJ on the throne
He wasn't black balled at all lol. He played after his suspension. His game and his health but declined.

Shut up !he was unbelievable
@@dimitris90schild92 so unbelievable to you is 14 points a steal and two assists a night. What word do you use to describe guys that weren't nba busts
@@chadcoop9638 that's not bust numbers lmao
@@user-ul6iu1cd4p being a bust is relative. With the college career he had and what number he went in the draft those numbers equal a bust.
